Aussie Gal,
I have been reading your posts and you are a wealth of information. Thank you so much. We will be spending 3 days in Melbourne in Dec 2013 and I'm having a hard time trying to decide what to see. Perhaps you can help. So far we are touring the GOR for a day, then one day in the city and not sure what to choose for the 3rd day: the Grampians, Penguin Parade tour or take the train by ourselves to Ballarat. We will also be in Sydney (after a 12 cruise AKL to SYD) for 3 days with 1 day in the Blue Mts. I've read good & bad reviews of the Penguin tour so I'm a little ambivalent about it.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Nancy

Aussie Gal,
Thank you very much for your suggestions/insights and recos for tours. The Daytours-Victoria looks like the perfect tour company for us. Now we just need to find another couple who would like to go along to help defray the cost a bit. The Dandenongs looks like it would be a beautiful trip. We are not much into the touristy places with big crowds but we would love to see the countryside to get a feel for what AU is like outside the cities. Just to clarify, we are actually spending 3 days in Sydney so we'll be sightseeing there for 2 of our 3 days and taking the Blue Mt tour on our 3rd day. Both you & Rugbypopsie are so right, there is so much to see. That's what makes it difficult to decide when you have limited time. We are really looking forward to our trip.
Nancy:)
